Remove his name? Severing ties with his father? No longer a member of the Zhao Family?
Chen Chong was stupefied.
He was also dumbfounded.
He did not expect Fourth Master Zhao to be so heartless as to chase him out of the Zhao Family for an outsider like Xiao Zheng!
A bank card?
A bank card was going to erase everything he had done for the Zhao family? Twenty years of hard work and struggle was only worth a card? How much money could there be in there? One million? Ten million? One hundred million?
No!
This amount of money was far from what he had done for the Zhao Family!
Even Mister Zhao couldn't be so heartless and kick him out of the game!
Chen Chong wanted to open his mouth and shout. He wanted to stop Mister Zhao, who was about to turn around and leave after throwing the bank card. But he couldn't make a sound. It was as if his throat was blocked by someone. He couldn't even utter a single word or syllable.
In just an instant, Chen Chong was drenched in sweat, the pain he felt far more intense than when he had been beaten half to death by Xiao Zheng. His face was deathly pale, and his veins were so exposed that they looked like they were about to burst out of his skin.
This was Chen Chong's reaction to being chased out of the Zhao Clan by Zhao Siye.
Li Mubai's reaction was also extremely complicated. He couldn't believe what he had seen and heard. He couldn't accept this unbelievable fact.
Of course, his reaction was only seen by others. He was just trying to be realistic and put on an act in front of the two brothers. But in reality? Wasn't all of this planned by him? Regardless of whether Xiao Zheng lived or died, from the moment Chen Chong decided to do this, wasn't the outcome already decided?
Only Zhao Qingyun, who was standing at the door, had a cold expression on her face. Not a trace of emotion could be seen in her eyes. Even when Chen Chong reacted and began to make a ruckus, spewing profanities, Zhao Qingyun still did not make a sound. Instead, he closed the door and sat down on a chair to the side, lighting a cigarette, his expression emotionless.
Chen Chong's words were too vulgar, and Zhao Qingyun clearly did not want outsiders to hear them. This was because it would damage Mister Zhao's reputation and make Mister Zhao unhappy.
"How could he do this!?" Chen Chong roared. "What have I done? He actually kicked me out of the Zhao Family? Did he not remember who had been fighting for him all these years? Doesn't he know that I've worked hard for the Zhao Family for 20 years? Why!? Just because I want to kill Xiao Zheng? Who was Xiao Zheng to him? Why is he so protective of him? "
"Old bastard! How dare you treat me like this! I will definitely make you regret it in the future! "Chen Chong roared with bloodshot eyes.
Zhao Qingyun could treat the first part of his words as venting, but when he heard the second part, Zhao Qingyun snuffed out his cigarette and raised his head gravely. With an unfriendly expression, he said, "Chen Chong, you can complain, but if you curse Foster Father one more time … I will let you lie in bed forever. "
"Kill me if you have the balls!" Chen Chong roared. "Who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to show off in front of me? "
Zhao Qingyun's gaze turned cold, and his killing intent was immediately revealed. Upon seeing this, Li Mubai hurriedly stopped Zhao Qingyun and bitterly said, "Qingyun, we're brothers. Big Brother was just impulsive, don't take it to heart. "
Zhao Qingyun gave Li Mubai some face and did not make a move on the spot. Instead, he coldly glanced at Chen Chong. "Watch your mouth."
Li Mubai consoled Chen Chong for a while, then said: "Big brother, don't be so agitated. Qingyun and I will properly advise Foster Father. He's just angry for a while. After a few days, when his anger subsides, we'll still be a family. "
After barely stabilizing Chen Chong's emotions, Li Mubai and Zhao Qingyun walked out of the ward and left the hospital one after the other.
The air outside the hospital was very fresh, and the sunlight was bright and enchanting. When it shone on their bodies, it was so warm that it made them feel sleepy. Zhao Qingyun, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and calmly stared at Li Mubai. "Do you really think that Foster Father was just impulsive?"
A complicated expression flashed across Li Mubai's face. He slowly said, "Have you ever seen Foster Father change his mind on something, whether it's right or wrong?"
"Then why did you lie to Chen Chong?" Zhao Qingyun calmly said.
"Should I tell him that his life is ruined? And that he'll suffer the revenge of Xiao Zheng, or even Black Bear's assassination? "Li Mubai countered.
"He only has himself to blame," Zhao Qingyun expressionlessly said. "Foster Father only gave himself a vacation and did not retire. He thinks that the Zhao Clan is already in the bag. "
"Although Big Brother is somewhat arrogant, Foster Father's methods are too heartless," Li Mubai sighed. "Frankly speaking, for Big Brother to end up like this, it's hard not to feel sad."
"What are you trying to say?" A strange light flashed through Zhao Qingyun's eyes.
"Don't you think that Foster Father only cares about Xiao Zheng and treats us, his adopted sons, like grass?" Li Mubai bitterly smiled. "Big Brother has been at the Zhao Clan's beck and call for twenty years, but he was chased out of the Zhao Clan just because he made this one mistake. Don't you think that we should think for ourselves? "
"As long as we have a clear conscience, what need is there to think about? Chen Chong refused to mend his ways, which is why Foster Father chased him out of the clan, "Zhao Qingyun calmly said.
"Even if we don't touch Foster Father's nerves, even if we work hard to coexist with Xiao Zheng. But can you guarantee that Xiao Zheng won't act against us? Don't forget, you've had conflicts with him before, "Li Mubai worriedly said.
Zhao Qingyun frowned and indifferently said, "Everything I've done is for Foster Father. There's nothing for me to worry about."
Li Mubai had a helpless expression as he hurriedly said, "Qingyun, are you really willing to live the life of an old man with Foster Father at such a young age? Are you really willing to let Foster Father give everything to Xiao Zheng? Don't you know Little Sister's attitude toward Xiao Zheng? Don't you feel that there's no place for us in the Zhao Clan right now? "
"You're a great contributor to our Zhao Clan! Back then, for the sake of the Zhao Clan, you traveled far away for many years. Now that you've returned, you have nothing left. Every day, you can only accompany Foster Father to drink tea and eat. Have you never thought about returning to the world? Have you never thought about taking back what was originally yours? "Li Mubai said agitatedly. "I can accept Foster Father passing the position to you, or even Little Sister. At the very least, we're family. But how can Foster Father hand it over to an outsider? What contribution has he made to the Zhao Clan? What right does he have to take away the world we've painstakingly fought for? "
Zhao Qingyun fell into silence. After a long time, he slightly raised his head and calmly said, "Second Brother, everything we have is given by Foster Father. It's only right and proper for him to take it back. Even my life, as long as Foster Father wants it, I can give it back to him at any time. "After a pause, Zhao Qingyun calmly said. "Second Brother, there are some things that should be said, but there are also some things that shouldn't be said. Everything you've said today, I'll rot in my stomach. But I don't want you to let your imagination run wild. You know Foster Father's temperament. No one can defy his words. We can't either. "
Having said that, Zhao Qingyun turned around and left.
Li Mubai stared at Zhao Qingyun's back as she left. He slowly lit a cigarette, and a faint chill flashed through his feminine eyes. He said in a voice that only he could hear, "Zhao Qingyun, I really didn't expect you to be so stupid. It seems that the trap I designed for you was completely in vain. "
